About this trial
This study investigates the prognostic value of dynamic changes in PCA3 mRNA levels found in the abdominal cavity drainage fluid after radical prostatectomy. Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, and radical prostatectomy is a standard treatment. While PSA levels in the blood are commonly used as a marker for diagnosis, this study focuses on the significance of PCA3 mRNA levels in the prognosis of prostate cancer. The findings may provide insights into improved post-surgical monitoring and more tailored therapeutic strategies for prostate cancer patients.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
None
Disqualifiers
1. Received neoadjuvant endocrine/chemotherapy before surgery;
2. Urine leakage after surgery (positive creatinine test of drainage fluid).
Trial population
The study will include male patients diagnosed with prostate cancer who need radical prostatectomy. Participants must have a preoperative diagnosis confirmed by biopsy and imaging studies. Eligible patients will have an abdominal drainage system in place post-surgery for fluid collection.
